Ograde Farm with all of us |
We spent our day at a family agritourist farm named Ograde. Our hostess was Davorka with
her husband Vjeran, son Maurizio, and two dogs. We wandered the farm picking
our greens for salad and sunshade mushrooms for our pasta.

Collecting our salad |
The farm is a
mixture of forest, small vegetable plots, and elliptical shaped sheep corals
lined with dry wall stone fences. There are foxes and wild boar in the area. They
have a few animals now, a horse and chickens, they are adding pigs in the
spring.
|
Making Pasta |
We made our own pasta, rolling the dough over a stick to create small
tubular pasta. Our lunch started with a delicious vegetable soup. We used the
pasta with two different sauces for our main course with chicken and the
mushrooms. Then we cut up another sweet dough and shaped it for dessert. A
relaxing day in the countryside.

Salad and Pasta |
Some of the group climbed the church tower on our return to Rovinj with a grand view of the town.
